I'm engaged!!!!!!!!!!

I got home from work today and walked into my living room to my boyfriend waiting for me. He gave me a big hug and kiss and wished me happy birthday then gave me my gifts. He had 3 gifts for me. He told me after that they were themed "Past, Present, and Future". The first gift was a card with a certificate to go back to the restaurant we went to on our first date. The second was a normal birthday gift, he gave me money to go get a mani, pedi, and more. The third gift was a HUGE box. He instructed me to open it a certain way. When it was finally opened it was a vase with a dozen roses, he had the ring sitting in the middle of the roses. When I looked up we both just stared at each other until he finally got down on his knee and asked me to marry him. Of course I said "Yes!!!".

BTW....I know everyone says this, taking pictures is hard!

Thank you everyone!!! I am in shock that it actually happened and I absolutely love my ring. I cannot believe he thought of such a cute way to ask, he put a lot of thought into it. We were both SO nervous through the whole process.

I will be posting more pictures as soon as I have them. I thought my camera would work nicely, I was wrong, I couldn't get any good pictures. My fiance (AHH I love saying it) has a nice new camera that I do not know how to use yet, we will take more pictures today and tomorrow!!!

Thanks!!!

Once I got the hang of the picture taking I really enjoyed it. I could not manage to get a decent picture with my phone or my point and shoot but the DSLR camera we have took amazing pictures!! Good luck getting more pictures! I love looking at everyones pictures!
